Me Squaw winter is here and next will , come Indian summer, but after that it will be just plain winter for about four months. Have you plenty of coal? The longer the commission meets the worse it gets. Indiana mine run is now eight or nine dollars a ton Bloomington is to have a million dollar water plant which will furnish ( enough liquid to bathe all the people , in southern Indiana and if they make good will end the campaign to move ( the university, an expense that should . not be placed upon the state at this . time. Democrats and republican leaders agree that the public service commission should not be repealed at least t until sonic plans have been made to , take care of the business now looked after by that commission. The lav. was enacted under Governor Ralston , and as administered by him was very satisfactory. It’s less than a month until Christ- 1 mag and if you start to planning for that occasion now you will avoid the ( final rush and have a much better time. Decatur stores are filled with articles which ma Ke the most appro ' priate gifts and shopping a day or two a week now will make it so much easier than putting it off until the last week or ten days. Now the announcement comes from Paris that France will not sign the four-power pact and so fails another league of nations.

These qualities lead him to accumulate savings. The same judgment leads him to invest those savings, with a house of high integrity at ths most favorable return he can secure. Our clientele is composed of fifty thousand such men who have never failed to receive seven per cent, annually on their investments with us. The R. L.

and trouble and hardship and then it seems to have reached a point of getting even with the United States for failure to join in the Versailles treaty. The Tiernan family at South Bend Is receiving entirely too much publicity for the good of the young people of the state, if both of them were isolated and forgotten the people would be just as well off. The one thing evident is that neither is fit to raise a family of children. We don't think so much of that lowa widow who married Tiernan for a day, either. It’s a “stinky” mess. Representatives of the coal miners announce they will accept no reduction in wages or changes in their rules, which means that we will have to keep on paying the price or go through another strike next season. If the commission can figure out a method which will do away with this kind of business and control the operators as well, the people will feel they have made good. If you live in this country you have much to be thankful for this week dedicated to that purpose. If you could but know the real suffering and the real troubles in Europe you would know how fortunate we are here. In England, Germany, France and all the old countries men riot over jobs, families starve and there is real suffering. Give thanks for a prosperous nation and help keep it that way. The football season is closing, conference games ending with last Saturday’s performances in which there were several surprises. Princeton wins eastern honors, lowa western and conference, and Gary the northern Indiana high school cup. Now comes the all-state, all-conference and other ‘ all” teams. Decatur had the best team in history this year and made a splendid record, losing but one conference game and that by a close score. There is not a single reason for discouragement in the locating of the Yeomen home. This city has been given a fair deal and those who have the big job of selecting the site continue to be Decatur boosters. We will soon be up to the point of settlement and if we are so organized as to present our claims we can win. This is the only place in all America where the entire board has visited and we are talked about more than al! the others put together. If we lose it is only because we quit at the critica' moment. Don’t be a quitter.

A lot of people are booming Henry Ford for president. He has a perfect right to be a candidate so far as we know, but we can’t figure just how they get him in the democratic ranks and we don't believe the delegates to a convention held by that party will ever nominate him. He supported Mr. Harding two years ago and if you remember picnicked with he and Mr. Edison up in the mountains right after election. He is a republican if anything, but if they don’t want him he should start a party of his own. He is not a democrat and never was. According to Bob Tucker, republican political writer, Governor McCray is opposed to any changes in the tax law or to its repeal. He is opposed to the abolishment of any of the state commissions, even in the face of election returns. He favors adequate ap- | propriations to complete the prison I palace now under construction, wants : a one-cent tax on gasoline and increase in automobile taxes and wants all the funds placed in one so it can be the easier handled. Are these the things you voted for? He asks for reductions in appropriations, but howcan this be done if all the demands are made? i - Many Wild Ducks In Kosciusko County) I.

Woman Legislator Favors Revision Os Divorce Law i Indianapolis, Nov. 25. —Miss Eliza- . beth Raineym the only woman elected . to the Indiana legislature will take her . place favoring revision of divorce . and woman welfare laws, she said toi day. t Regardless of the laws, however, I she said, she believed the chief cause , of divorce is hasty marriages. "Each party to the marriagae does t not give proper consideration to the : qualities of the other," she said. • "They marry by impression and not by acquaintance. Then they become i acquainted and dissatisfied.” 1 Miss Rainey was elected represen-; )|tative from Mariou county on the Re-1

publican ticket. She said he had prepared no bills for revision of the Indana divorce laws but she said she would probably introduce a bill in the legislature now being drawn up by Mrs. Edwanl Franklin White, assistant attorneygeneral. "In regard to women in Industry,
